Those brutal yet pesky Arizona Coyotes just wouldn’t go away all night long. Despite twice sporting two-goal leads in the game, the New York Rangers found themselves tied up with one of the worst teams in the National Hockey League down the stretch on Thursday night.
But then Matt Puempel happened, again.
On the power play, with the game tied at three, Puempel tipped in one that beat Mike Smith that represented the game-winning goal.
What was a close game late eventually turned into a lopsided 6-3 game.
